Thyme

to the World i wish a tree
for all else is empty and void
like the eyes of a hungry child

Dream with me
lonesome, like a raindrop
solitary among the stars

i miss you
but you never were
only a wish to be forgotten

follow down
among the roses
with the briars and the thorns

a lingering duet
river deep
fathomless

dear immaculate clock
necessity
meanders onward
a tulips thyme
in the garden

to carry me home
to carry me away.
